2013 Rawlings Velo BBCOR Baseball Bat BBVELO

The Rawlings Velo baseball bat for BBCOR, High School, and College play has been upgraded for 2013. The Rawlings Velo BBCOR still uses the tried and true Rawlings 5150 alloy throughout the baseball bat. In addition to the 5150 alloy, Rawlings has added composite to the end/cap of the bat, making the 2013 Velo BBCOR extremely light and balanced. Some of the best Collges at the World Series will be using the freshly updated Rawlings Velo BBCOR at the plate... Will you?

Pros: With BBCOR limiting the sweet spot and pop of the bat, what it comes down to is the feel, vibration, and balance. When I originally swung this bat it had fantastic balance which resulted in a more powerful swing for me. Another feature I personally like is the loud ping noise it makes after a solid hit. This enables me to get feedback on all of my hits. I had previously used the marucci black (which is also a great bat), but, the velo is just as good if not better due to the fantastic balance. If you are a smaller hitter that needs that extra bat speed than this is your bat; but, if you are a power hitter than this bat will also suit you due to the one piece design which will help you power through the ball and give you the instant feedback.

Cons: The grip is the most common issue in all of the reviews I have read; however, you should not let that discourage you from buying this bat. The grip is not as bad as people make it seem and with batting gloves it is actually a very nice grip.
